9457	REFN: 26640 [John Bunch 12.ged] Bowman and Johnson Killed, James Bunch Wounded in Powell's Valley By Emory L. Hamilton ----------------------------------------------------------------- From the unpublished manuscript, Indian Atrocities Along the Clinch, Powell and Holston Rivers, pages 42-45. James Kincaid, son of John Kincaid, who lived across Clinch River from St. Paul, VA, and who, in the year 1779, moved with his father to Kentucky and later settled in Missouri, tells of this incident in his Revolutionary War pension statement filed in Lafayette Co., MO, in 1833. I entered the service of the United States under the command of Captain John Dunkin (1). At this time his father lived in a settlement called Castle's Woods on Clinch River, about 25 miles north of Abingdon, Virginia, a frontier fort. Powell Valleyhad been settled, but the settlers had been run off by the Indians. A good many of them could not bring their plunder with them, but hid it. John Dunkin was ordered out with a company of militia in order to guard the people who had left their property behind them, to collect it together and bring it into the settlements. He (Kincaid) was one of Dunkin's company. At this time Captain Joseph Martin was stationed at the Rye Cove Fort on Clinch River in order to guard the frontiers of Virginia. He (Martin) kept two spys, who were brothers, to-wit: John and James Bunch. When we got into the valley we met with these spys. They then returned with us down to what was called Martin's Stationin said valley, but we found no one there - they had all fled. One of the settlers that was with us, who had fled from the valley by the name of Davis (called Captain Davis). Before the people fled he lived at Owen's Station, (2) ten miles below Martin's. We took up at Martin's Station. Sometime after, Davis petitioned Dunkin for a few men to go down to Owen's Station with him tocollect his plunder. Five men was granted him, one of whom was James Bunch. They went to the Station and collected the plunder accordingly, as I understood, and returning back to the camp the Indians waylaid the path and fired upon them, and wounded Bunch, and killed a man by the name of (Robert) Bowman atthe place, and wounded another by the name of Johnson, as Bunch related, forhe returned with him (Johnson) a piece, but he (Johnson) never got in. Threeof the party got in that night, two of whom was Bunch and Davis. The next day Dunkin went down with all his force, save a few left to guard the wounded.This affiant was one that went down. We went to the place and there found Bowman dead. Davis took us to a tree where he said an Indian stood whom he shot at. We went to the place and found a great deal of blood. We then took histrail and followed them, but not a great ways, as it appeared they had scattered. We returned back and buried the dead, thence to camp (at Martin's Station). This circumstance broke up the expedition. Bunch grew very sick and we had to take him to this company at the Rye Cove. We were then all dismissed and returned home. As well as he can recollect, he states this took place in 1776. He does not recollect the particular month, except that it was in warm weather. Andrew Lynam in his Revolutionary War pension statement filed in Bath Co., KY, on June 23, 1833, also tells of the above killing in this manner:In the month of June, he thinks the 1st, but cannot say as to the particularday, he entered the service of the United States under Captain John Dunkin, as a volunteer for three months in 1776. At the end of this three month tour he again volunteered in Captain Dunkin's Company of militia for three months. Was in the month of September the same year as before. We were commanded by John Dunkin as Captain, and as our tour was to prevent the Indians from committing outrages upon the defenseless inhabitants	BUNCH, James (I15321)

9500	REFN: 43 Birth Certificate reads "John Corey" not "William John Corey". Newsp aper Clipping - Granby - dated June 4, 1915 "VERY SAD CASE - One Boy Shoots Br other in Corey Home. One of Saddest Accidents in History of Granby. Roy Cor ey, a boy about 13 years old, came into his home about noon Saturday, having in his hands a shotgun, with which he intended shooting at rats and as he sto od in the doors, the gun was discharged. As near as can be ascertained the boy stood in the door with the gun in his hand and had pushed a loaded shell int o the chamber and the cartridge was exploded when he snapped the breach block into place, the hammer on the gun being set wrongly. The charge of shot ent ered the thigh of his older brother, William Corey, who was sitting at a tabl e near the door at the time, severing the femoral artery and passed across th e lower part of the abdomen making a surface wound all of the way. Dr. V. J. Irwin was summoned by telephone as soon as possible by the boy who done the shooting and he did all that he could for the injured lad, but the loss of blood and been too great and he died Sunday afternoon. The funeral was held Tuesday afternoon in the home of John Corey at Granby station and the service was conducted by Rev. F. Barrows Makepeace, pastor of the South church in Gr anby and the burial was in Granby cemetery by the side of the mother of the b oy who died about a year ago after a long illness from tuberculosis. The dec eased boy was the elder of three and was employed by John S. Dewey on his tob acco farm close by. Of the three boys he was the only one that was in perfec t health each of the others being chronic invalids to a degree. Mr. Corey is employed in a store near Granby station and is a man highly respected and es teemed by all in Granby. He has had to undergo losses, first of his wife, af ter a long illness and now of his eldest son, that calls out the sympathy of all in the community to a rare degree" Note: The descendants of Roy are not aw are on any childhood health problems.
